I ruined a pair of coated eyeglass lenses using the Zeiss cleaning wipes. The lenses were under warranty and replaced at $20 per lens. I asked the seller prior to use if it would be safe to use the Zeiss wipes on my glasses and was told yes. The eyewear retailer explained later that the Zeiss wipes are an excellent product, but should not be used for coated eyeglass lenses. However, it is just fine to use them on sunglasses.
Did the retailer offer advice on what would be a satisfactory substitute for the wipes? I suppose it would recommend the eyeglass cleaning fluids commonly found in opticians' stores. But what kind of tissue would be suitable, I wonder.
